How to enter flash mode

Either run `adb reboot bootloader` while the phone is booted into android, or turn the device off and hold the power button and the volume down button. Your device should now be in so-called "fastboot" mode.

Installation

Common process, boot to Fastboot and then flash boot.img

Mainline

Should be quite feasible, since downstream DTs are available and msm8996 runs relatively mature mainline kernel at this point.
